I applied through other source. I interviewed at Uber (San Francisco, CA) in Sep 2016
Interview
I only got chance to speak with an engineer for Telephonic round. Interviewer was really terrible with communication skills, arrived late for interview and then had completely no idea as to how to judge a programming exercise based on C++.
Overall, very terrible experience and I really hope that Uber give a very serious look into it's interview panel.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
// evalexpr(-4 - 3 * 2 / 2 + 4) -> result (float or double)
//
// [Token(NUM, -4.), Token(SUB), Token(NUM, 3), Token(MUL)…]
//
// input: an array/list of Tokens representing a VALID arithmetic expression
// output: the result as a float or double
//
// Token:
// type: one of NUM, ADD, SUB, MUL, DIV
// value: float or double it's only defined/relevant when the token as type NUM
//
// Todo:
// 1. implement the Token class/struct
// 2. implement evalexpr
The interview process started with a recruiter screen where they covered my background and the role's expectations. Next, I had a phone screen focused on technical skills where I faced a DSA question on frequent elements in an array. I had practiced similar problems on prachub.com beforehand, which helped me tackle it effectively. The technical rounds consisted of coding and system design questions, including rate limiting. Finally, I had a behavioral interview where they assessed cultural fit. Overall, the experience was average, but I received and accepted an offer.
I applied online. I interviewed at Uber in May 2026
Interview
The interview process begins with an initial BFS screening to evaluate overall fit and relevant experience, followed by three virtual onsite interviews that focus on coding ability, an in-depth discussion of technical background and past projects, as well as behavioral and collaboration-related questions to assess communication and teamwork skills.
